Now open: Le Mill

This past weekend Mumbai got introduced to hot new concept store, Le Mill. The store’s founders, Cecilia Morelli Parikh and Julie Leymarie, the store’s creative consultant Aurélie de Limelette and fashion consultant, Vogue’s Anaita Shroff Adajania are globetrotters all, and their style pedigrees are reflected in the space. The sprawling 15,000 square feet store was decorated with a collection of assorted birds mirroring a Nature theme to parallel the store's efforts to source sustainable products made in India. Previously a mill, the store at Crawford Market was redesigned by architect Ashish Shah to create an eclectic space that features home décor, textiles, carpets, ready to wear fashion and accessories. There’s also a chic café, a flower shop, bookstore and an exhibition space to round things off.

The guestlist at the launch was, as expected, a mix of the city’s most stylish. Among the attendees were designer Surily Goel, Tina Tahiliani Parikh, industrialists Arvind and Tanya Dubash, Bruno and Ramona Narang, Prerna Goel and Malvika Sanghvi. Bollywood celebs seen discovering the space include Sikandar Kher, Rohan Sippy and Kunal Ganjawala.
